The Planet Ocean GTM GoodPlanet is in (but not incoming)
I really like Omega's affiliation with GoodPlanet so I was pretty happy when I got the call that the new Planet Ocean GMT was in. I currently don't have a GMT in the line-up so I had high expectations on this watch, specially after seeing Ruckdee's excellent photos and review.The PO-GMT GP package is beautiful with a big bamboo box. My first impressions was: wow, this is a solid piece. 43.5mm and more than 17mm thick (probably 17.25 or 17.5) and it is heavy. I don't have the exact weight but at least 200 grams, which puts it exactly in the same class as the Rolex Deepsea. Unfortunately, I find that problematic because as much as I adore the DSSD I think it is top-heavy and quite often uncomfortable to wear. The PO-GMT is in the same superweight-class but lacks the adjustable clasp, which is a life-saver on the DSSD. This might not be a big minus for many or most people, it is just that I don't need another DSSD, which I often have to take off my wrist when working at the computer, or i
Super cool 1958 Omega Speedy ad
I just added this ad to my collection. In over a decade of collecting watches and ads, I have never seen this one. Dig the reference to the High precision wrist computer with tacho-productometer scale. I have never heard that one before. Enjoy!
My second Patek
The debate is finally over! I had debated for a long time on adding a Aquanaut 5167 to my collection which already included a blue dialed Nautilus 5711. I was worried that the watches were too similar and I wasn't sure how that would impact the wrist time of the two pieces. Making the decision even more difficult was the fact that I couldn't find an Aquanaut anywhere to actually try on so I could actually compare it to the 5711. I saw one in NYC recently but as expected it was in the Patek box and I could only admire it thru the plastic window. Anyway...decided to pull the trigger and I couldn't be more happy! What a comfortable watch. IMHO it does have a lot of similarities to the 5711 but the rubber strap really does give it a completely different feel. I wouldn't be a watch addict without noting that I always thought I would pick up the 5167 and then possibly upgrade to a 5164 later on. I still think that could happen BUT it probably will take me longer to make that move si
Questions about PP 5205
Hi all,I've searched the forum and I've learned a lot about the 5205 (thanks to everyone here). I am leaning towards the 5205 darker dial and I'm requesting pics on a smaller wrist. Pics of the 5205 (any color)and comments are greatly appreciated.
Change, improvement or just a different look 2016 Explorer
So I owned an Explorer 39mm in 2016 when the 2016 revision was released at Basel that year. I liked it when it came out but at the time liked the one I had and didn't think there was enough difference between the two to do anything costly and drastic about it.Fast forward two years. After seeing the 2016 version at AD's the last couple of years I really do think the changes to the hands and 3,6,9 took it back to its roots so to speak and are solid improvements. I decided this week to let my current one go in favor of one so I have a slightly used 2017 model on the way. I just couldn't see having a version of a watch I liked when I could have one that truly sang to me.I'm just curious of forum members who had the 2010 Explorer 39mm and liked it but decided to part with it for the 2016 version because it just came together so well and you saw it as an improvement not simply a change or different look.
